Quickly Share Files Between Your Tablets with Huawei Share

  2. On the sending device, touch and hold to select the files you want to share, then touch . Touch Huawei Share, then touch the icon of the receiving device to send the files.

    These steps may be different if you are sharing files directly from an app.

To view the received files, go to Files, then go to Internal storage > Huawei Share on the Categories tab.

Received pictures or videos can also be found in Gallery > Albums > Huawei Share.

One-Touch Printing with Huawei Share

When a printer that supports Huawei Share is nearby, you can use Huawei Share to find the printer and print out pictures or PDF files stored on your tablet.

  1. Depending on the type of printer, ensure the following:
    • Wi-Fi capable printers: The printer must be powered on and connected to the same network as your tablet.

    • Wi-Fi Direct capable printers: The printer must be powered on and have Wi-Fi Direct enabled.

    • Bluetooth capable printers: The printer must be powered on and discoverable via Bluetooth.

  2. On your tablet, preview the file to be printed, then go to Share > Huawei Share.

  3. Once the printer has been discovered, touch its name on your tablet, and adjust the settings on the preview screen. Then, touch PRINT to print.

    If you are connecting a Bluetooth printer to your tablet for the first time, find the printer on your tablet, touch the printer name, then press and hold the Power button on the printer for about 1 second to confirm the connection.
